July 3, 201410 yr I'm not impressed with the 2x I've tested so far. Don't be surprised. Pentium is the lowest bin for Haswell. Pretty much all the rejects go in the Pentium bucket. The Anniversary Edition is simply a G3250 with the multiplier unlocked. Intel does not bin the AE's at all. Expect them to be disappointing.
July 3, 201410 yr I ran in to a bug with S06 bios for gigabyte Z97 1.9V vcore on air chip works fine LOL the Danes couldn't kill one for the life of them at the kingston comp
July 3, 201410 yr Administrators Don't be surprised. Pentium is the lowest bin for Haswell. Pretty much all the rejects go in the Pentium bucket. The Anniversary Edition is simply a G3250 with the multiplier unlocked. Intel does not bin the AE's at all. Expect them to be disappointing. I am not disappointed, the 3258 is a very good value chip for normal users. I am no fan of Intel policy which did severe damage to oc with their you get what you pay for attitude, locking all chips except for a few expensive ones, but the AEs I have are good bang for the buck, 4,5ghz below 1,2v and 2933 imcs at low IO voltages. This is a move to the right direction. Btw, the 4670k I had did worse than these Pentiums and did cost four times more...
July 3, 201410 yr Guys, any news how G3258 compares clock-2-clock with 4770K in 01? I feel these cpus should clock a bit higher so if cache is not that important G3258 can be a good cpu for cpu dependant 2-threaded 3D.

I feel these cpus should clock a bit higher so if cache is not that important G3258 can be a good cpu for cpu dependant 2-threaded 3D. Interesting question bro... For 2001, 2003 and 2005 it can be a second choice instead 4770K with 2 cores ?
July 3, 201410 yr Administrators I dont think it can compete, weak Imc and lower Cache. Tell me more about weak IMCs
July 3, 201410 yr Administrators What do you want, bench 01 with mfr 12-15-15 loose subs at ddr3-3000?
July 3, 201410 yr if you can test with psc a run of 3dmark 2001 at 4500 it would be great . What voltage did you use on Dram for that spi32m run (psc and samsung)?
July 3, 201410 yr Administrators 1,96v bios set on the Sams at 2800c9, 1,82v on the psc, latter not optimized. I will see if I can test the 01, atm time is a bit short.
July 4, 201410 yr Administrators @suzuki Around 90k, no optimizations, no vga oc at 4,5ghz with 9800GTX+
July 4, 201410 yr The good batch is on the way to Bulgaria, that's why you're getting the rejects. Still no info which batch it is though, have to wait at least until 10th
July 4, 201410 yr Administrators My cpu is 3418C008, forget to mention this #1 4500 32M 1,2v, not less tested #2 4500 wprime 1024 1,176v minimized Edited July 6, 201410 yr by websmile
